Trying to find some story ideas that don't fizzle out:

There's some writing idea generators at Seventh Sanctum, which has many different kinds of generators.

First Roll -

1. A fusion of the story of Buddha and the legend of Prestor John, set on a sailboat.
2. A fusion of the legend of the Golem and the story of the little Dutch boy envisioned as a political supernatural tale.
3. A fusion of the story of the Odyssey and the story of Romeo and Juliet envisioned as a occult slasher horror tale.
4. The tale of Lady Godiva being about a group of professors.
5. A fusion of the story of the little Dutch boy and the story 'The Prince and the Pauper'.
6. The story of Alice in Wonderland set at a rock concert.
7. The legend of Johnny Appleseed envisioned as a class comedy tale.
8. The story of 'Journey to the East' being about a group of farmers.
9. The legend of Orpheus envisioned as a supernatural horror tale.
10. A fusion of the legend of the Flying Dutchman and the legend of Merlin envisioned as a rags-to-riches class comedy tale.
11. The story of the little Dutch boy envisioned as a character study tale.
12. The story of Pygmalion and Galataea envisioned as a escape-from-prison tale.
13. A fusion of the legend of the Flying Dutchman and the story of Chicken Little.
14. A fusion of the story of Aladdin and the story of 'Journey to the East'.
15. A fusion of the legend of Sleepy Hollow and the story of Jesus that concerns a group of astronomers.

A lot of these are fusions between stories I don't know.

I recognize the Odyssey and Romeo and Juliet in #3. It's not very well fitting to make that a Occult, Slasher, Horror tale.

I know Buddha's story a bit, but Prestor John, Golem and the little dutch boy I have no idea about. A politcal supernatural story is a funny juxtaposition of genres.

I don't really know Lady Godiva except for Godiva chocolate.

I've heard of Prince and the Pauper, but I don't really know the story.

#5 sounds interesting. Alice in Wonderland at a Rock Concert. It seems like something that might already exist.

Using the Legend of Johnny Appleseed is cool. I'm not sure if a class comedy is the right genre though. What about Johny Appleseed as a Occult, Horror tale from the perspective of the local animals watching this stranger plant these "apple" trees".

#8 I get the idea of a journey to the east, and maybe I could see the connection with farmers, but its a bit weird.

I don't know about Orpheus.

I don't know about the Dutchman but Merlin as a rags-to-riches class comedy tale has potential.

The story of Chicken little could be interesting.

I know Aladdin, and I know Sleepy Hollow, and of course I know Jesus, but talking about Jesus and a group of astronomers is interesting.


I'll stick with two originals from the generator and a mixups.

 #6 The story of Alice in Wonderland set at a rock concert.
 #15 A fusion of the legend of Sleepy Hollow and the story of Jesus that concerns a group of astronomers.

 #16 Johnny Appleseed as a Zombie Horror story.

I ran two more generators, and got a few interesting ones

The tale of the Prodigal Son being about a group of newspaper reporters.

A fusion of the legend of King Midas and the story of the Pilgrim's Progress envisioned as a character study tale.
